Most advice pertaining to careers, love, healing, among others does not penetrate the surface of neurotypical thinking. Do more so you can have more. Develop a ten step plan to ‘guarantee’ your success. Have numerous romantic partners and hope at least one of them would be good enough for you. The dominant model of achieving desires and attaining our goals in society is based on burning ourselves out while going against our own intuitive guidance encoded within our spirit.
If you follow the priestess path or feel aligned with it despite not being sure of the entirety of the power you yield, know that the majority of mainstream advice will lead you astray. The priestess path, is a path for highly spiritually gifted women who have a divine purpose they cannot escape from or shirk. This path consists of various spiritual identities such as mystics, seers, healers, artists, alongside many others. Priestesses are here to cause paradigm altering shifts by being a conduit, a vessel, for God, light beings, and ancestral gifts to flow through. Encoded with inner sovereignty to actualise their power by transforming their pain into power, the Priestess is often born into chaos, experiences great betrayal, and is forced into ego deaths where she must face her demons. Priestesses often feel robbed of typical experiences the vast majority of her peers have. From friendships, having the liberty to go anywhere, and typical romantic experiences, consequently, Priestesses are forced into self-mastery.

While you may have felt ‘underdeveloped’ in certain areas of your life, by consenting to the lessons you are meant to master, your growth will be far more advanced than the majority. Priestesses don’t just learn lessons, we embody them at a cellular level. This is what shapes our deep reservoir of wisdom, confidence, and courage to pursue our path which consists of non-arbitrary twists and turns.
We must forgo the desire to have a ‘normal’ life, the desire to fit in, and the desire to hollow ourselves out so we can be digestible. While this may sound like a high price to pay, it isn’t. The ‘normal’ life would bring us greater pain and suffering because we were not built for it. It’s like trying to put on a shoe that does not fit. You’ll be left with bunions, swelling, and sore feet despite how much you want it to fit. This is why Priestesses incarnate into dysfunction family relations, experience life threatening betrayals, and encounter incomprehensible amounts of envy and persecution. People don’t know what is different about you, but they can feel it without understanding it.
Priestess, know that you are encoded with an insurmountable amount of power that cannot be compartmentalized nor controlled unless you allow it. By shrinking yourself to fit into basic, neurotypical moulds, you are not only leaking your energy, but you are setting yourself up for great pain. The Most High and guiding ancestors do not want you to experience certain pains, so when you forsake your path and the terms and conditions it comes with, you will only find yourself in karmic loops with very little growth. On the contrary, when you embrace your path and lean into self-mastery despite it being difficult at times, you experience freedom, abundance, and supernatural favour that is encoded within your spirit and your birth right.
Your job is to release the unhealthy mindsets and unhealthy ego that is holding you back. The expectations of where you should be and what you should be doing will debilitate you. However, following the guidance from the Most High and Spiritual team, while it can lead you into the unknown sometimes, is your ticket to freedom and manifesting your God-given purpose. Learn to embody your God-given identity - what your soul requires to thrive through introspection, ritual, and daily recalibration when you find yourself leaning into collective fear mongering or when the ‘priestess wounds’ surfaces.
Understand that your path requires self-mastery while you are being supernaturally supported by God, your spiritual team, and your guiding ancestors. Do your part and let them do the rest. They are here to show you your way and will guide you back to the center when you begin to drift off. The kind of healing your spirit requires as a result of your spiritual DNA and the kinds of warfare you experience cannot be given to you by your favourite influencer or celebrity. You will always feel like the typical advice doesn’t cut deep enough for you, because it doesn’t.
I spent many years of my life looking for healing spaces that could address the depths of what I felt, only to be disappointed or left playing the therapist role myself. Your spiritual DNA is extremely unique and can only be handled by those who recognise this and can provide you with the tools for your own growth.
